Phillies vs Cubs MLB Live Stream Reddit for Series Opener

The Philadelphia Phillies will travel to the Windy City to face Kris Bryant and the Chicago Cubs. Both teams are coming off series victories over the weekend and look to bring that momentum into a matchup between NL powerhouses.

How to Live Stream the Game

The game is set to start at 8:05 p.m. ET at Wrigley Field. It can be watched on NBCSP as well on NBCSCH. The game will be also broadcasted on MLB Network if out of market. Live streams will also be available on the MLB Streams subreddit.

Phillies Lineup

The Phillies offense will try its best to go into Wrigley and come out with a couple of wins. However, the struggling Bryce Harper needs to improve upon his season as he's endured some massive struggles lately. He leads the NL in strikeouts with 62 and is batting just .235.

On the mound tonight for the Phillies is former Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta, who is 4-4 with a 4.02 ERA. The Cubs are the only team Arrieta has never faced in the big leagues, so this will be quite the reunion.

Cubs Lineup

The Chicago Cubs will throw Kyle Schwarber, Kris Bryant, and Anthony Rizzo right at Arrieta to kick off the game. However, the Cubs will be without Javy Baez tonight as he's dealing with an injured heel, which he suffered on Sunday night, and Willson Contreras, who is getting the night off.

Pitching for the Cubs is right-hander Yu Darvish, who is still searching for consistency. His 5.14 ERA and league-leading 33 walks through nine starts is not what the Cubs paid $125 million for.
